What is Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy?

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) is a promising solution to accelerate healing of tendon injuries and osteoarthritis. Its benefits are now being applied towards the facilitation of healing tendons and cartilage.

Using the patients own blood, specially prepared platelets are taken and re-injected into the affected area under ultrasound guidance to ensure accuracy. These platelets release substances known as “growth factors” that lead to tissue healing. For more information on PRP therapy visit www.regenlabprp.com and discuss further with your pain specialist.
